People here talk the talk about getting behind the candidate once nominated, but I saw the same Kerry bashing post primaries in 04. And people wonder why democrats are seen as divided and squabling off message incoherent etc.

I worked for another candidate in 04 but when Kerry was the nominee I worked and campaigned and bust my ass to try and get him elected. McKinney lost - she was a lightning rod, people loved her or hated her but she lost and for her supporters it is too hard to accept that she is way too small potatoes for diebold type conspiracies - those guys didnt give a crap who won there ( 04 presidential is a different story) and certainly not enough to fake a huge margin. truth be told the GOP might have wanted her in the race to exploit her misteps and unfortunate public image.

let the McKinney supporters vent tonight and I for one will offer them consoloation. If they are still bitching about it by tomorrow and not getting behind the nominee I for one will roast them alive for not being loyal democrats or loyal americans.
